Figure 2.5: SAS: Typical Packet View Results Display
Note: When using the Advanced Mode sequencer, the analyzer logs the state transitions in the trace,
with the name the user gives to the state.
In the Packet View, right‐click on any packet and select Show‐>State, to display these
states and their transitions in the trace.
SAS: In case of an STP interface, the expander displays STP addresses provided to the
SATA drive and the SAS software integrates the STP addresses in the ATA command.
The results display shows each transaction for every layer identified in a different color
and the data direction identified with data direction arrows. Upstream traffic has an
arrow from right to left:. Downstream traffic has an arrow left to right: .
You can hide any layer by clicking the corresponding Show/Hide button on the menu bar.
The system retains all captured data, but the display has only some data layers for simpler
viewing.
You can configure the viewer display for test and viewing preferences (See “Viewer
Display” on page 191. for details about configuring the viewer display).
The Analysis Project dialog offers you a comprehensive set of choices to create a trigger
and capture project satisfying some specific need. You can set the Analyzer to:
 Capture specific patterns (see “Patterns and Data Capture Setup” on page 57 ).
 Capture different patterns pre‐ and post‐trigger.
